The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part-of thesame.

I, JOHN A. PRICE, of Scranton, Lnzerne county, Pennsylvania, haveinvented an Improved Stove-D001 and Hearth combined, of which thefollowing is a specification.

This invention consists in.the combination of a stove-door with ahearth,.when these two parts are either cast in one piece or otherwiserigidly connected, so as tobe bothsupported upon the same hinges and.swung open together, so as toiuncover the ash-pan and fire-box at thesame time, and close together, whereby the labor of" removing andreplacing the hearth separately is avoided.

Figure 1 is a front, and

Figure 2 a side elevationyand Figure 3 isa plan view.

In the drawingc is the stove-door;

d d, the hingesby which the door is connected with the stove; Y

b, the hearth, rigidly attached at its inner side to the lower edge ofthe door;

0, the ash-pan; and

e, the stove.

Besides possessing the advantages enumerated above, this constructionadmits of openingthe front of the stove, when itis necessary to work atthe same, more fully than could otherwise be done.
